dtc p0455

dtc p0455 (large evap leak) cel came on, after a few "check gas caps" messages. brought it to vatozone cleared it, came back ect....

brought it to the dealer, they smoke tested it, zero leaks.

tech pulled service bulletin: to reflash pcm to update.

flashed - stage 2 flash still valid.

tried to charge $70. i us'd them down to $50 and i had a GM care card for $15.

Is your warranty expired? Why are they charging you?

The 07 came with the 5 year 100,000 km(60,000 mile) warranty,I kow this because I was pissed when I bought my 06 with a 3 yr 60,000km and they change it a month later.I bought it in june of 06 and in july it was changed.
You better read your warranty material that came with the car.
The only way I could see you having no warranty at 40 k is you bought it used.
